1 | Can you loose your salvation? | NT general Archive 1 | JonCohen | 123118 | ||
Angel, I agree with everything you say here, except for your description of Luke 9:49-50. Maybe I am misreading your reply, but there Jesus did not forbid the driving out of demons in his name. There must have been something else going on in Mat 7:22-23. It don't think it is specified, other than that there was something un-Christlike as seen in the fruit of their work. The fact that Jesus never knew them suggests that they did not address Him in prayer. This is all very refreshing to me in light of conversation I saw on another website of how a certain Episcipal bishop is refusing to acknowledge that the only way to salvation is through Christ. I am also disturbed by some commentaries elsewhere that say that their interpretation of the Biblical warnings about salvation are guided by what is comforting. As I read the Bible, it is intended to be anything but comforting. Certainly people can go to God's Word to be comforted, but afterwards we need to get back to work in strengthening our faith and spreading the Gospel. |

I'm assuming you've already shared these Holy Words from Jesus Christ Himself to this "bishop." If he doesn't believe them, he really should stop professing to being a bishop and go back to studying his Bible...and do a lot of praying. John 14:6 Jesus said to him, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me. Also Matt 28:17 When they saw Him, they worshiped Him; but some doubted. 18And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, "All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. 19Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, God bless. --Rowdy |
